I live naked and barefooted, very close to Earth and Nature, in an 18-acre, off-grid, clothing-optional, food-forest intentional community (GaiaYoga Gardens), way out in the jungles of Lower Puna, far East Big Island, Hawai'i, and I have for more than 7 years now. Although there are many challenges, I love my life, and I'm immensely grateful to live where and how I do, on my own terms! I would not want to live any other way! 😁🙏💚⚡💥🔥✴️✳️❇️👣🌱✨🤙

Warm greetings all! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Well, I'm happy to announce that I just created our new 'We Are Alive Tribe Sovereign Wealth Investment Fund' account, and with a better name and acronym to boot than the ones mentioned in yesterday's post, WAAT-SWIF, @waat-swif. This account will be the official means for our community to contribute/donate to our ongoing efforts to build and grow our decentralized community economic and financial infrastructure, framework, and system, for the benefit and good of us all. All contributed/donated assets to this account will be used exclusively for that purpose, with me distributing them to the particular community accounts where they'd be most helpful and useful.

I've already added the name, and an initial description and purpose for the account, now just to add the avatar and cover images. I'll also be adding information and a link to the account in the footers of all of my posts, to begin raising awareness that it exists, and that it's ready to go. I'll be checking this account, for any received assets, as a part of my once-weekly thorough asset management for the We Are Alive Tribe, usually on Sundays.

Now that we have an official account to receive community contributions/donations, any of you reading this that feel inspired and motivated to take a more direct role in helping us to build our sovereign community financial empire, your investments (because that's what they are) would be deeply appreciated, and would be put to very good use indeed. We've got much to build and grow, and far to go, and we could use all the help that we can get. Ben (@benthomaswwd / @benthomasuk) and I will continue forward with our own regular personal investments regardless of whether we receive exra assistance or not, but it sure would speed up the process quite a bit, that's for sure.

I'll focus the contributed/donated assets to one, continue increasing our weekly HIVE income, two, to adding into assorted excellent diesel/liquidity pools, and three, to acquiring more solid, useful, and valuable tokens that provide useful benefits to the community. We're going to make huge strides this year, and your mutually-beneficial investments will help make them even larger.

Although this account will be used primarily to receive community assets, I'd still like to get sufficient HP on it to put it in our curation trail, which would be beneficial for all of you directly through more upvotes, as well as creating further token income from curation. So what do y'all think about the name, the acronym, and the purpose of this account? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Yesterday, Thursday, I left the Flow House, after finishing up my Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, by a little after 2PM, giving my attention first to some photography for my posts. With that completed, I made a quick food-supply run to Tutu's to restock the new kitchen space (people are still deciding on a name), after which I took a quick asset-management break up at the Flow House, and then I focused on collecting logs, branches, and other good organic matter, in a wheelbarrow, and transporting and depositing them at the entrance to the fenced garden, to be used to create hügelkultur beds for planting. After collecting and dropping off several full wheelbarrows, I wrapped that task up for the day, then unexpectedly, I was enlisted by Alex to help him to install and set up our second StarLink unit (long story, don't ask...lol), and to set up my router to create a dual-WAN, so as to utilize the connections from both Starlink untits to load balance our network traffic. It took a bit, since I'd never set up a dual-WAN before, but we did finally figure it out, and we got it working correctly. We didn't finish that until around 6:30PM, and as soon as we were done, I headed to the new kitchen space to make myself some food (a mini spiced-and-seasoned beef burger, on olive-oil-toasted sourdough, with pepperjack cheese, and Dijon mustard), returning to the Flow House immediately afterward, to begin my evening Hive tasks. I had quite a goodly number of notifications again, and I wasn't able to get through them all before I had to stop by around 10:30PM, to do some asset management, and then to go to bed by about 12AM. I woke up just before 7AM, still feeling that I needed a bit more sleep, doing more asset management, going to make my superfood fire coffee in the new kitchen, heading back to the Flow House to write and publish my February BPUD post, and then to begin on this one. It's now just after 1:45PM, so it's a really good time to wrap this up, so that I may attend to my few other important Hive-Blurt-'We Are Alive Tribe' tasks, before leaving the Flow House a little later in the afternoon, to focus first on some more photography for my posts, and then on community/land work (hopefully not in the rain, since it's been raining all day so far). I deeply appreciate y'all so very much! Until tomorrow's manifestation of these posts! Always forward, onward, upward, and whaleward, ho, together we go! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙

2026 Life Goals

1.) Do regular integral practices again, alone or with others.

2.) Prepare regular batches of my medicinal teas collected from the land again.

3.) Make my plant nursery, and the gardens, beautiful again.

4.) Begin learning relevant coding/programming languages to more fully contribute to the sovereignty-driven technologies where I am active, like Arch Linux, Hive, Qortal, DeSo, and Bastyon.

All photos were taken with my Motorola G Play 2024 Android Phone.

Thank you all so much who have helped me get to where I am today, and allowing me to share more of the beauty and magic from my life and my world with you, and for your continuous appreciation and support! I am truly deeply grateful! 😁🙏💚✨🤙
